New York Times: The trial to determine the mental competency of the ailing 92-year-old Sumner Redstone will open with a blockbuster lineup of witnesses on Friday, beginning with Redstone himself. A first-day trial schedule promises to lead with 30 minutes of video testimony from the media mogul. If all goes according to plan, that will be followed by testimony from a psychiatrist who has examined Redstone, Dr. Stephen L. Read; Mr. Redstone’s granddaughter, Keryn Redstone; and Philippe Dauman, the CEO of Viacom.
